Pretty awesome that Beach House just decided to release all the songs they didn't use on Depression Cherry as a full album just a month later. And all those songs sound great too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQyiZiwklgw

8. Sleater Kinney - No Cities to Love

I don't seem to listen to legit Rock and Roll very much anymore. So when an awesome pure rock record comes out I have to kind of train my ears to appreciate it. It's worth it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cj2k3QsHmyM

This album gives me Grizzly Bear vibes, but it's more upbeat even though the lyrics are dark as hell. It's kind of the quintessential indie album for 2015. It captures this moment in music pretty perfectly.

I got excited for this album listening to Grimes, Chairlift's Caroline, and Sleigh Bells' Alexis take over XM radio for a day. They were incredibly engaging. Canadian female pop stars are so much better than American ones.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv9YoYCKNoE

4. Action Bronson - Mr. Wonderful

Unanimous top ten! I love how uncomfortable he got when Ghostface Killah got pissed off at him for jacking his style. Poor guy.

3. The Weeknd - The Beauty Behind the Madness

It's kind of weird that The Weeknd blew up so big this year. He hasn't really changed his music much, but I think he's (slightly) more sober now and therefore working well with the label and promotion, which would explain why he's now in the mainstream. He's an incredible talent and makes the best sex music of anyone alive.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPIhUaONiLU
